GE Classic Drip 12 Cup Coffee Maker Sometimes the simplest things are the best way to go and that is the case with this coffee maker. The GE classic drip 12 cup coffee maker is a traditional drip coffee maker with easy and convenient delayed start option and a timer. The coffee maker is fully wrapped in a tasteful stainless steel and a modern look that fits into your kitchen or office environment. The coffee maker that I tested out came with a glass carafe, but is also available in an insulated thermal carafe. The coffee maker comes equipped with a permanent gold tone coffee filter so there is no need for paper filters. The coffee maker also has a bold brew option for those who enjoy a bit of a stronger cup of joe. All in all this is a reliable and solid built coffee maker that will last for years to come.

This GE classic drip coffee maker has a classic design, made of stainless steel and comes with a glass carafe. It also includes a metal reusable coffee filter. You can always use paper cone filters with this machine but the included reusable filter is very easy to use and clean and the coffee tastes fantastic when filtered with it. The coffee machine is so easy to set up, I literally had it out of the box and brewing coffee within 5 minutes. The water tank is under the same lid as the coffee and is measured from Min to 12 cups. Fill it to your desired amount, pour your ground coffee into the filter, close the lid and press the brew button. Easy Peazy. No confusing settings or buttons to press. There is an Auto Brew button it is also very easy to setup and is great for when you need your coffee machine to start brewing coffee for you while you are getting ready for your day. When you press the Auto Brew button, you simply select the time you want it to start brewing. Leave water and coffee in the machine and it will automatically start brewing at the selected time. This coffee machine might seem a little pricey for its "simplicity" but it is designed and crafted with durable materials and seems like it will last me a very long time and be worth every penny. If all you need is a coffee maker to make classic drip coffee with no hassle then I think you will be very pleased with this coffee maker. No confusing settings or buttons to fiddle with, get great tasting coffee brewed within minutes.

EASY, ATTRACTIVE, DRIP COFFEE MAKER REVIEW: GE - CLASSIC DRIP 12-CUP COFFEE MAKER - STAINLESS STEEL Best Buy Tech Insider Network REVIEW: Previously we’ve used POD based single cup coffee makers, but we always felt horrible with all the waste they generate, so we wanted to try a drip coffee maker, since we are both at home a lot more now, we could use a “pot” of coffee in the morning vs 5-6 induvial pods. The GE CLASSIC DRIP with Stainless Steel finish is attractive enough to fit in with our other counter top appliances without drawing attention. It is well built and modern looking, but very simple to use. We are still fine tuning the amount of grounds and how fine or course to grind them to best fit our taste, but after ½ dozen pots, we are pretty close (and very shaky ha-ha). If you are already experienced with drip coffee, I’m sure you will love this on the first use. So far, we find 1 standard scoop of fine grounds (about 2 tbsp) per coffee cup (as indicated on the side of the maker) to be about right for us when using the wire mesh filter. We are at about a “B” for our taste. Again, we are complete beginners with drip coffee. I suspect the temp is a little low for the perfect cup of coffee, but what I’ve read is that this is usually the case with drip makers and not a show stopper. When I took a reading directly from the “stream” it was about 180 degrees instead of recommended 195 degrees. This is not a big deal, and can be compensated for with different amounts and grinds of beans until you get the desired taste. Also, since I am not testing in the brewing chamber itself, I could be off in my measurements. By the time it finished brewing (4 cups) and poured it in a cup it was down to 166 degrees. BEST FEATURES - Chrome Appearance - Easy to Operate - Easy to Clean TIPS - Overfill with water by 10-20% to allow for water left in the grounds - Use the cup indicator on the side of the unit, it seems more accurate than the pot - Be careful with placement of the coffee maker as a lot of steam and heat escapes the top of the unit. If it were under and close to a cupboard bottom, I could see the steam causing damage over time. We have tried less expensive models (from other mfg) and really regretted them. We have also tried much more expensive units at a friend’s house, but did not want to spend that much on a drip maker. Overall, this seems like a solid drip coffee maker. We look forward to more experiments to get a perfect drink. There are no bells and whistles here, other than a timer. This makes it simple to operate, but also limits the ability to fine tune temp or brew time. For the price / quality, I think this is a good buy.
